Amanda Bauer
Amanda Bauer, Maven Quilts & Stitchery, grew up in North Georgia surrounded by a deep family heritage of quilters, needle work stitchers and textile artists. After quilting for over 15 years, Amanda found her passion for the portable, meditative art of English Paper Piecing that offered her the perfect canvas for textile artistry filled with vibrant colors and intense patterns.
After thousands of stitches and many learning opportunities, Amanda developed the Maven Method for English Paper Piecing (EPP). The Maven Method teaches not only EPP basics tools & techniques, but practice tips that will make your EPP relaxing and FUN!
